I like this photo but the pole in the middle kinda ruins it. My only excuse is that I took it during Happy Hour! I haven't done any editing of the photo yet, but when I do I would like to get rid of the pole. I have Essentials 12 and I'm pretty sure it is quite capable of doing the job but I would appreciate any advice. My one previous attempt with Essentials 10 was a disaster.
I don't use Essentials, but do use Photoshop CC. Used Content Aware Fill, Clone and Content Aware Brush. Finished with straightening the horizon a bit. There is lens flare coming over the hill behind the huts, which I didn't try to remove. Forgot to attach the photo....opps.
Fantastic Work..
I have Photoshop Elements, has it limits for sure, good for the price....I need to put more time in using it.
I think you did an awesome job removing the pole, turned it into a very nice photo.
Blessings,

tom wouldnt elements be able to do as good a job ??
Love the composition and light of the image and SueMac did a super job! Now I'm wondering about the piece of towel/clothing in the tree :)
Yes, I suppose so in the hands of a talented Knowledgable individual skilled in the software...
Not I,....the best I have been able to do is change the background on some of my Grandson's Senior Basketball Players posed against a partial white/black wall for their upcoming Banquet and Honoring the Seniors that will graduate this year.
I need to spend more time on it and read more tutorial's, I did use it to post process some raw files now and then.
Last week, I down loaded a 30 day trial of Lightroom 5 on my MacBook Pro....processed some photos with it and impressed.
Sure another waste of our kids/grandkids inheritance, but think, I shall purchase Lightroom piddle with it.
I do have one question, if anyone knows the answer, i haven't found it under search for Lightroom.
I have been using a Nikon D-5000 and converting the .nef files has worked with Photoshop Elements 10. Upon, purchase of a Nikon D-600 the Photoshop Elements 10 will not convert those .nef files, there is not plug in. I had to go to Adobe and load their little Software program that will convert the Nikon D-600 .nef to .dng files then Photoshop Elements will pick up and allow me to do post processing.
Thus my question and search has been will Lightroom 5 convert the Nikon D-600 .nef files????
Excuse the ramblings.
Blessings to all.

Beautiful! Thank You very much for both the info and the processed photo.
Looks good, just need to remove the piece of clothing from the tree.

The cloth is actually a part of the canopy over the lounge we were sitting on. I hadn't even thought about it but it certainly wouldn't hurt to remove it. I agree, SueMac did a superb job!
You're welcome! Being retired I have lots of time to devote to learning the various techniques.
I did it in 30 seconds with Elements 10, but someone beat me to it. His looked better.

So, it looks like I can't blame my disaster on Elements!
Ah! I found the problem! I just re-read my original post and it seems I was using Essentials 10 instead of Elements 10. Silly me! No wonder it didn't work! I probably better trade in my Essentials 12 for Elements 12! Dang! That was a wasted $2.37!
